Social Features Build your crew. Send and receive friend requests, manage them from your activity feed, and see who's going to events. Your Going / Interested status appears on your profile so friends can find you and join you. Propose events directly to a friend with one tap — they get a notification and can accept or decline from the feed. Profile Photos Upload a profile picture from your camera roll or take one in-app. Your photo appears on your profile, in friend requests, the activity feed, and party proposals. View Friend Profiles Tap any friend's profile to see their upcoming events, recent activity, and attendance history. Mutual follows are created automatically when a request is accepted so you both appear in each other's feeds instantly. Block & Report Block any user to remove them from your search results and prevent any contact. Report accounts for spam, impersonation, inappropriate content, or harassment — our moderation team reviews every report. Artist Music Previews Tap any event to open the artist's SoundCloud profile and preview their sound before you buy. Fully supported for multi-artist lineups. Login & Auth Fixes Fixed a bug where signing in with Google sometimes kept the previous account session active, requiring a double sign-in. Apple Sign-In is now listed first on iOS in line with App Store guidelines. Turkey & International City Fix Fixed city search for Turkey (Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir) and several other international cities that returned no results or wrong events. Genre Filter Fix Resolved a production bug where genre filters (techno, house, drum & bass, and others) were not being applied correctly to search results. Filters now work consistently across all event sources. Ticket Links & Affiliate Partners Event ticket links now route through verified partners — Skiddle and Ticketmaster — so you always land on the correct official purchase page.
